Wow...what a lot of “Change”....

New boss, same as the old boss...

Same cabinets, same Springsteen, same Clintons, and don’t see any “minorities”....oh, forgot, the Dems don’t include them, just send them checks.

I had a feeling she was going to be nominated for the Supreme Court of the US.

I was thinking that maybe she would be offered the position of Ambassador to Iceland...

I’m not sure the Obama group wants the Clintons anywhere close to the inner workings of the Obama Administration. Can you imagine two Clintons for the price of one in the SOS position..... No way Bill could keep his nose out of the process. jmo.

She won’t take it. Her only way to remain in the news is as senator. She knows Schumer and the rest of the dems will overreach, so she will sit tight and likely have a better job
in four years than many other dems.

The rats have too much rope and they are about to knot it up.

You think things would have been different if Reagan didn’t fire Haig?

Not going to happen, unless this was part of the deal of her giving up on the nomination.
Please no. The only positive that came out of this POTUS election was the Clintons weren’t going to be back in the whitehouse.
Last thing I need is to be tortured by Secretary of State crusty pantsuit flying around the world selling us out on a daily basis.

Yeah, right. he just wants her out of the Senate so she can’t lead revolts against his proposed legislation. I don’t see her doing it.

First assignment, she and Huma should be sent to Iran immediately to teach them about “tolerance”.

Yep! Why would she give up a lifetime job as a NY Senator for 4 years of SOC?

This could be a big leadup for Hillary getting the SofS job and to grease the wheels for Bill Clinton becoming president of the UN. God help us all if this comes to pass.
This all could of been part of the deal of her pulling out to let Obama have the nomination.

This government is going to be just a clown car of liberals.

Considering some of the options out there, Hillary Clinton would not make a bad Secretary of State. My.... how times have changed that I can say that!

Heh... I was just thinking the same thing. Better there than on the USSC for life. And, surprising myself a bit, she might not even totally suck at it. There's some far scarier people standing in line.

But I kinda doubt that she would take it. They're both deeply narcissistic personalities and neither will likely let the other have any chance of outshining them.

Problem for Obama is that there isn't anybody he can select for his cabinet that doesn't make him look like a naive waif by comparison. He'll be reduced to taking credit for the work of his betters, and they won't probably stand for that for very long.

It shows just how bad things are when Hillary would be the best we could hope for in a Secretary of State. I do think she is a tough personality who would not bend to Obama’s will on every foreign policy decision, which is why I don’t see her actually getting this position.

NO WAY she would give up her powerful Seante seat to work for this guy. She's positioning for 2012.

Agree with you 100%. She is counting on Obama's presidency being a total disaster and challenging the incumbent by running as an Independent. 2012 is going to have some similarities to '92 and '96, is my guess.

...The presidiots are all puppets of those in the shadows that have had the control of top secrets of the government. Puppet on the left hand, puppet on the right hand. One person holds both the puppets. Case closed, the end, bottom line...
